Jerusalem: ‘The increasing Iranian influence in the Middle East is a threat to Israel’s security. Iran could directly attack Israel using its military deployed in Iraq,’ Israel’s Military Intelligence Chief Maj. Gen. Tamir Heyman warned Maj. Gen. Heyman expressed concerns over the increasing influence of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards on the Iraqi soldiers.

Iran’s Revolutionary Guards and Quds Force established their bases in Syria to challenge Israel’s security. Likewise, the two military factions of Iran were setting up bases in Iraq as well to enable attacks on Israel. In August last year, Iran had announced that it had missiles capable of directly hitting targets in Israel, highlighted Heyman as he reminded the fact.
